hell, Giles. My one exchange with David got you enough material for a string
of posts. I suppose, at the root of it, I should neither be surprised that
Dave will stretch the truth, or make suppositions, to make some supposed
political point. It's probably my mistake to bother pointing them out.
Still, little in these sorts of exchanges irks me more than the old chestnut
of, "The Poor like being poor and getting handouts. It's a lifestyle
choice." More patent bull**** cannot be slung, and yet, so many seemingly
otherwise decent people entertain themselves(or assuage their dwindling
consciences) with this very notion.

What a crock of ****, Littleton. Get off your high horse and do
something besides talk liberal ****. Get out there. Meet and serve
those less fortunate than you. Many of the men and women I meet two or
three times a week at the pantry *are* satisfied with their lives, or
at least do not complain about their lot in life. Thanks to your
savior Obama, the unemployment rolls are getting higher, and more and
more people are using any services they can find. These people are NOT
happy. They are down right discouraged, and VERY ANGRY at the fools in
Washington. But the street person who hasn't worked in gawdknowswhen,
you know the one that smells and hasn't bathed in awhile, seems
content. He/she is good natured, quick to be your friend, and is more
than overjoyed for anything you can do for him/her. Ya ever hugged
someone like that, Tom? Ever shake their hand? You probably couldn't
without wanting to wash their filth off of you. You are the one that
is pathetic, Tom. You hide behind your politics saying to yourself, "I
voted for The Man, The Big O. He'll fix everything. I don't have to
look at, serve, or touch these unwashed people. Obama will do it for
me." Horse puckies.

Get out and do it yourself, Tom. Biden, your hero (who makes Dan
Quayle look like a genius) will help you I am sure. Not all the people
are as I have described them above, but they are out there. And there
are others, Tom, the ANGRY ones. You will hear more from them very
soon.
